Ryan Helsley might still be out there? More skewed to saves, probably.

When does Brujan get called up so my fantasy team gets to use him?
Brad Johnson
12:48
Ha! I'd love to know myself.
He hasn't played in a game since 4/6 so there must be something going on
I hadn't heard anything
12:50
Google hasn't heard anything either
Maybe FanGraphs stats are wrong, I'll check another provider
12:51
I can't find anything. Truly mysterious

What do you make of Thairo Estrada's start in SF. You think he finds consistent playing time down the road? Thinking of dropping Stott for him.
Brad Johnson
12:53
I think he's a second division starter who's good enough that the Giants won't just give him away. And he's the kind of player bad teams won't go out of their way to acquire.
That leads me to expect him to be a part-timer as they get healthier.

The power outcomes (2 HR) really don't match the profile, and I don't see much evidence to expect a change in power. He's a low-pop, ground ball hitter. Could be a decent AVG/R guy in the right role.
12:55
Personally, I prefer betting on Stott, but I do think it makes sense to hot-hand that roster spot until someone better than both emerges.

Kind of followed your advice and rostered Whitlock for my standard re-draft roto league. Why am I holding him again?
Brad Johnson

What's not to like? A win, 11 K, and a 1.04 ERA in 8.2 innings. That's better than most starting pitchers.

It's time to cut Biggio, isn't it?
Brad Johnson
12:57
Sadly, yes. He looks lost up there. I usually can point to a flaw or two for a hitter to focus upon, but he almost needs to start from scratch. I'd try demoting him to High-A to see if he can jump start.
12:58
And that's a wrap! Thanks for all the questions. I'll see ya next week.
